Are You a Senator?
Engaged
Our mission at Davis & Elkins College is to produce critical thinkers and lifelong learners.
Why? Because those are the people who may try and fail, but they also can adapt and grow. The ones who press on until they succeed.
But success for its own sake is empty. Senators are value-driven. They value deep and meaningful relationships, seeking to understand one another across differences, the sanctity of truth and the beauty of the natural world.

Receive Aid
Most of our students need some financial help… and they get it.
98% of D&E students receive financial aid, and a large portion of those tuition dollars come from our nine robust scholarship programs.
As a Division II school, nearly half our students take advantage of our athletic scholarship. Other programs support international students, creative arts studies, members of the Presbyterian Church (PCUSA), and many more.
What is campus life like?
A
Small-Town
Vibe
Ours is a small campus of less than 800 students, so we share the friendly, small-town vibe of the City of Elkins we call home. It’s a place full of country charm and hospitality, where kindness is a way of life and everyone feels like family.
Where
Everyone Feels
like Family
Your instructors don’t just know your name. They get to know your plans and dreams, sometimes better than you do. Faculty here have a way of recommending programs, clubs and internship opportunities you didn’t even know you wanted.
Freedom
&
Self-Expression
It’s life in a small but mighty center of arts & culture where self-expression is encouraged, celebrated and even financially supported through scholarships. It’s an environment where you’ll have the freedom to try new ideas and find fuel for your ambition.
Creating a welcoming atmosphere, where you can lead your own way.
